This is a rich, easy dish! I followed the recipe, as written, except I reduced it for 2. I also added a bit of basil at the end, as I had some fresh on hand, and I thought the flavor was excellent! It would have been great without the basil also! This would be delish as a main course, with some chicken or a couple of meatballs thrown in...Thanks for sharing, The Wallaces!
